hold the door
for tippy and zelda
to the basement floor
with a song or two
happy birthday and
hail this country
howling to an
electric moon
tippy sleeps and
zelda's shrinking
perhaps, one day,
they'll meet
once more,
but, for now,
zelda's heart's still
laughing
and when i see her,
i will hold
the door

bubblegum shrine
bubblegum shrine
bubblegum shrine
bubblegum shrine
could you spare a
sister a quarter
for a piece of bubblegum,
a piece of bubble gum for my
bubblegum shrine?

last night
i dreamt we
did our
laundry, together
and we were singing
the same song
while we folded
our clothes
as i recall, you
looked like a
total dufus,
which is pretty
accurate
and so, i woke up
feeling sad
'cause it never
happened
Track Name: ✩☀♡ séquence de rêve {parts i and ii} ♡☀✩
i

deep in the night when
asleep falls the moon in
the tune that it weeps
a galaxy steeps in my mind
silver visions
become with collision
and fiction is born
the spectres rest on a
the retainers i've worn
no baby teeth left, but
the nectar of night showers
crowns on my palms
to train for the war,
she had set off
the bombs underneath
a sea upon which
elephants slept
and i wept,
and i wept

ii

a satanic lady
invited me
to her house

she served us tea
and we sat
on her couch

while holding her
pachyderms, memories
bled back to me
books from a previous
dream warned violent
petting can peel
their skin and reveal
the red 'neath their wrinkles
and worry said, 'i think
i'll feed them chocolates
instead.' but
she feeds them
Storm when she's not
trying to contact
the dead

parfois,
parfois, la vie peut être très belle,
mais je sais toujours pas
le goûter de l'amour

parfois,
je me peux sentir très perdue
mais quand je pense à toi,
ton essence fleurit en moi,

même si tu sais pas
qui je suis;
sais pas encore.

hello, van
fading turquoise
a road trip
to Virginia

it is late
the sun is setting
all the trees
are on fire

when the sky
turns to mauve
you arrive
at the Rest Stop

don't believe
the con artist
let us eat
something greasy

save some seats
the floor is sticky
wait on line
for the bathroom

all the toilets
flush conveniently
smell the soap
the wet fingers

good to know
we're all women
fix your hair
in the mirror

weight machines
save your quarters
for bubble gum
and old jaw breakers

leave again
drink some water

drive again
take your shoes off

sink again
watch the windows

fog again
trace your name out

listen to
the cars whisper
like a sea
on the highway

let's get stuck
in boring traffic
orange lights
buzz impatience

it's okay
you've got socks on
close your eyes
fall asleep soon

the radio
static
is singing for you
singing a lullaby
for you

the dusty rain's
falling
the moon's feeling lonely
with you
Track Name: aica's voice
